A living legend and icon of Australian drag racing, Victory Bray has won
six national Top Doorslammer drag racing championships, while his son Ben
is already on his way to matching his dad’s score, with three
national championships.

Hankook Tyre Australia has partnered with Team Bray Entertainment (TBE)
for a very unique arrangement, with Team Bray attempting to burn through as
many Hankook tyres as possible, creating a spectacular show along the
way.

Ben Bray made the debut of the new DeWalt 1963 Corvette burnout car, as
official on-track entertainment at the 2013 Bathurst 1000, joined by his
father in his iconic 1957 Chevy burnout car. TBE has a long history in
burnout shows, with Victor adopting it in the early 1990s, before building
his first bespoke burnout car in 1995.

The Corvette’s subsequent event was the 27th Summernats car
festival, ACT, in January, where the yellow Corvette was invited to open
the burnout competition, a tradition long-held by father Victor.

Throughout 2014, both the Corvette and the Chevy will also take lucky
passengers – chosen at each event - for a wild ride, experiencing
first-hand the sensory overload of 2000hp produced by the supercharged and
fuel injected 8.7-litre V8 – an engine taken from Victor’s
first competition drag car, along with the unique experience of being
engulfed in Hankook tyre smoke.

As the Brays travel Australia-wide for their drag racing schedule, their
two B-double transport trucks will also run exclusively on Hankook truck
tyres.

The TBE burnout cars will also be showcased at a number of high-profile
motoring events, such as the Top Gear Festival, Townsville, Bathurst 1000
and Gold Coast V8 Supercar events, with both cars promoting and smoking
Hankook tyres.

“It was very exciting to debut the new DeWalt burnout car at the
hallowed ground of Mt Panorama,” explained Victor. “The new
Corvette and its striking paint scheme were certainly celebrated by the
fans. And we can’t wait to show the rest of Australia what we
do.”

Specialists of social media, Team Bray Racing has its website with
regular news and report updates on both its racing and burnout programmes,
along with Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and mobile app links.
